Disposable masks are made of polymers such as polypropylene, polyurethane, polyacrylonitrile, or polystyrene, and they are not biodegradable.

Other alternatives are to use reusable masks, which researchers are working on. They could be made of synthetic fabrics with lower environmental impacts than cotton, which uses a lot of water and land and requires agrichemicals to grow.
